Bug: Progenistus can be removed from the game without a sacrifice effect
Just ended a match using Progenitus and someone played a boardwipe to destroy all creatures.
This shouldn't have even caused Progentius to be sent to the graveyard because it has protection from everything.
I don't get how a bug this simple hasn't been resolved yet.

Progentitus can be removed with nondamage based board wipes, because they don't do anything that protection helps against. Protection from [X] only does four things (remember them by DEBT):
D amage by sources with [X] quality will be prevented
E nchanting/equipping by [X] is not possible
B locking by [X] is not possible
T argeting by [X] is not allowedWhen [X] is everything, it just means
can't be damaged,
can't be enchanted/equipped,
can't be blocked,
can't be targeted.So being destroyed by a board wipe is still possible. And Progentitus doesn't die, because it has a replacement effect, that shuffles it back into the library INSTEAD of going to the graveyard. That's why you couldn't find it anymore, it was in a random place in your library.
So there is no bug here, nothing to fix. Just a lack of understanding of the rules on your part.
